Head and neck cancers are often treated with surgery among other methods. When extensive tissue removal is necessary, reconstruction becomes crucial to restore function and appearance. For instance, reconstruction of the lips and tongue aids in speech, while rebuilding the mandible and jaw facilitates chewing. Top plastic surgeons aim not only to restore function but also to enhance facial appearance to socially acceptable or nearly normal levels post-tumor removal.
Our department specializes in providing a range of options, including free flaps and aesthetic techniques, for facial feature and function restoration. Our success rates with head and neck free flaps rival those of top-tier institutions worldwide.
